Twitter Makes Purposely Embarrassing Recruitment Video
The recruitment video is still a young art form, developed by companies like Google and IBM in the late 2000s. But it's not an art form too young to parody mercilessly. Twitter's new recruitment video mocks all the things we hate about recruitment videos: hyper-staged fun times, awkward cutaways, and cheesy slogans in stilted serif fonts. And by taking all these tropes to their most cringe-inducing extremes, the micro-blogging site makes itself seem like an awesome place to work.
